Introducing talented Tattoo Artist and Fashion Influencer, Abigail Rawlings.
Abigail was born in West London but was brought up in Buckinghamshire with her family, including one sister.
During her school years, Abigail shone in all-things Art which continues to be her number one passion to this day – when we all think of that ‘Arty child’ who’s skills we were envious of, well that was her.
With her energy focused on putting pencil to paper, Abigail went onto complete a Tattoo Apprenticeship when she was just 18 years old. It’s safe to say that there’s really only one thing that rivals art when it comes to vying for Abigail’s attention – and that’s animals.
When Abigail was younger, she dreamed of becoming a vet until she remembered that she would have to face sick animals every day, which is something she has confessed she could not cope with. One of Abigail’s career highlights as a Tattoo Artist was completing Calum Best’s forearms with a complicated symmetry project which came out perfect — another was creating her private tattoo studio.
Fast forward to 2021, Abigail was presented with a once in a lifetime opportunity when she was approached through Instagram to join the Season 7 cast of ITV2’s Love Island. Since leaving the villa, Abigail has worked with brands, including; Boux Avenue, HelloFresh, In The Style, boohooMAN, GLAM DOLL, Rebellious Fashion, Estrid, Hairburst, Bondi Boost, Boots and LookFantastic.
Abigail’s hobbies include fashion, fitness, reading, painting, and spending time with her pup, Zeus. As well as pursuing exciting partnerships with some of her favourite brands, Abigail looks forward to exploring how she can play a part in raising all-important awareness for charitable organisations that work to prevent animal cruelty.
Say hello to British actor, Clint Gordon – Clint came from humble beginnings, being brought up in a down-to-earth working-class household in Leeds, West Yorkshire by his mum, Jane.
Clint is living proof that having a tough upbringing can give you a hunger to succeed and do better for your family.
Clint’s passion for acting started from a young age where he loved watching films but with drama and performing arts being so expensive, he found himself purchasing a ball for just £5 and heading down to the park to focus his energy on another love of his, football. From this moment, sport, and fitness soon became his main passion. Clint would spend any spare time that he with a ball at his feet, running and training to hone his craft – soon becoming a talented Footballer, playing in the lower professional league and FA cup.
Despite his passion for football, Clint wanted a back-up plan. So, he put a pen to paper and hand wrote letters to 80 companies – delivering each of them in West Yorkshire by hand. Through this, he gained an Electrical Engineer apprenticeship – eventually making the decision to focus on work, setting up a property development and facilities management company which became the first of his five businesses. Clint always had a determination to do better so for several years he continued to run and grow his businesses where he actively offered local, working class, inner city young people work opportunities.
One thing that always haunted Clint was that he hadn’t pursued his passion for acting. This led him to start taking acting classes and attend workshops – this was a lightbulb moment for him where he knew that was what was missing and what he wanted to do. Soon after, Clint was signed by his first acting agent and the auditions started to roll in. Before he knew it, he was being cast in several Amazon Prime films before landing a part on the BBC’s BAFTA-winning drama ‘Happy Valley’, Dave’s Comedy series ‘Meet the Richardsons’ and ITV’s legendary soap, ‘Coronation Street’.
While progressing in television and film, he started to blend his love for acting and sport by training to progress as a stunt man in the film industry.
